Day 1 depart from "The Old Bridge Backpackers" at 9am by motor boat for an
approximately 4 hour boat trip with game and bird viewing on the way.
Arrive at Xaxaba campsite at lunchtime, staff will prepare a light lunch of
salads, cold meats, cheeses, etc.
From 3:30pm to 5:30pm go for a guided game walk on Chiefs island.
Arrive back from your game walk and go out onto Xaxaba lagoon for sunset.
Back at camp have a wash or bucket shower and then a good campfire dinner.
Sleep the night in dome tents with comfortable bedrolls.
Day 2 Wake up, have breakfast and be met by your mokoro guides and
be taken out for the morning for a combination of canoeing and walking.
Arrive back to the campsite for lunch.
From 3pm to 6pm go further upstream by boat for birding and game viewing in
the Jugujugu area. This is, in my humble opinion, one of the most beautiful
areas in the whole of the Okavango delta.
Arrive back at Xaxaba campsite for a shower and campfire dinner.
Day 3 Wake up very early (around 5am), have coffee/tea and set off for a
three hour guided game walk.
Arrive back around 8:30 for a full breakfast of cereal, eggs, bacon toast
etc.

lunch on the way.
